This is the coolest and nerdiest news ever.

We all know that Ozzy Osbourne abused drugs and alcohol in the past. Some are shocked to see the rocker still rocking hard and touring around the world. Turns out Ozzy's health has to do with his genes. Yes, Ozzy's genetic code is unique. Ozzy donated some of his DNA to scientific research.

Turns out he has several gene variants that “we’ve never seen before”, including variants that could impact how his body absorbs methamphetamine's and other recreational drugs. The heavy metal singer was excited when he was told his genetic code could help the world.

“I was curious – given the swimming pools of booze I’ve guzzled over the years – not to mention all of the cocaine, morphine, sleeping pills, cough syrup, LSD, Rohypnol… you name it – there’s really no plausible medical reason why I should still be alive. Maybe my DNA could say why.” said Ozzy.

Why in the hell has Professor X not gone to Ozzy's mansion yet? Come on, we now need a Ozzy Osbourne X-men crossover immediately.
